Oh, man, this game blew my mind. I didn't understand why it was called "Don't Look Back" until I defeated the big boss and realized it was the tale of Orpheus. Smooth gameplay, awesome pixel graphics, haunting ending, and a really satisfyingly hard challenge, to boot.

@Peacekeeper: worms/snakes take three hits to kill and are pushed when hit. They dash forward, then slow. Spiders: They drop from above, but are easy to kill and big. Dog: Let him jump over you then shoot him several times. Do that again. Then jump over him and shoot him dead. Shoot from behind. Jumpers: They take 3 hits to kill and jump up and down. They run at the same speed as you and aren't too hard to dodge. Big demons: They shoot fireballs in a randomly in a thin cone. Just shoot while jumping or standing, depending if he aims high or low, 4 hits. For the double demons, get up high and take 2 shots at him, then drop down, 2 more, up, down then DON'T jump up or you will get hit by the burst of fire when the demon dies. Boss: Jump onto the low plat form and as it fades jump on the next. Don't let more than one spider congregate, and kill bats ASAP. His fire-spreads are fairly easy to dodge, just look at the two going closest to you and stand in between.

Here are the enemy types worms: You cant kill them, can only push them back. Bats: You can kill but, wait till they get at gun level. Spiders: Wait till the drop and shoot at them fast if there is a lot.(If possible jump over them). 1st boss the dog: Keep trying to shoot his butt (lol). First form of jump: Let him jump over you and then turn and shoot him in the butt. 2nd form of jump: It is a long but high jump so do the same for this one and for the third jump it is low and hard to avoid just jump over him when he attacks you. Then next screen you find a jumping demon or something. He takes 3 shots to kill and are hard to kill (just avoid them). then the HUGE demon guys that throw fire. Jump and dodge their fire balls and try to shoot them down fast. 5 hits to kill them. Then the boss devil: Jump on the high platform and hit his face. Takes 6 shots I think. Have fun and + this to help other kong members.

is there supposed to be no visible path in the underworld? got to screen with 4 springs & 2 squares, no path so just keep dying. 1/5.

I am not sure what to say though I rarely am on these type of games. It has a very nice mood to it and the music works well with the mood. keep up the good work.

WoW, this guy need to work on his planning a bit before suddenly going on an epic quest. I mean what if he didn't accidentally find that that magic handgun with unlimited ammo.
How exactly were you planning to shoot the devil in the face with then, hmm...

3 tips versus the demon boss:
1.- you can hurt it if you shoot just as you're first falling to get first blood, before it gets to do anything. Perfect this one and you'll only need 4 shots against it.
2.- If you want to risk aggresive jumping, jump and shoot just when the second platform materializes. This way you can jump and shoot again before it vanishes for an extra hit. This combines sometimes with tip 1, but it's very hard to pull off (only managed to do it once).
3.- If you deal enough damage quickly, one attack is going to be one tier lower (less fireballs, single stalactite or summon) even if the boss has 2 or 3 hits left. This means you'll have one less big attack to worry about.

badges are REALLY slow to award, leave the game open once you're done but take a screenshot as soon as you get all the way back, to be sure.

Thanks, my boss thinks I am a complete nutjob for all the growling and cursing coming from my desk. Thinks "I can't shoot this damn dog in the ass" is a tech troubleshooting term.

boss guide: dog: it jumps around randomly. you have to shoot from behind to hurt it. when you shoot it the first time, it jumps further. the second time, it jumps so low you have to jump over it. the third shot kills it. demon: it randomly shoots balls and later summons spiders and stalagmites. you have to shoot it in the head to hurt it. 5 shots should kill it

a pretty cool game, really challenging at times, but extreamly gratifying when you beat the bosses.
it was a lkittle more challenging than it should have been for me because i was lagging, but that just made killing hades all the more rewarding.

Oh wow, boss, doesn't take damage at all. healthbar never goes down ever. This is pure brilliance, screw this game. Screw this developer too.

Truly the most frustrating game I have ever played, and not in a good way, this really shouldn't have badges let alone be badge of the day...

@BlueKirito: Best I can tell, and perhaps I'm wrong here, your character has lost the love of his life. Not wanting to go on without her, he jumped off a cliff. After some time, he awoke, and went to search for her soul, eventually finding it in a cave (perhaps the underworld/hell). He brought her soul back to her grave, only to discover someone already there... himself, mourning her. He turned around to look at his love, and they both went on to the next world.
Tl;dr: go read FilFyre's comment.
Also, this game was great! Short, but sweet nonetheless. Some puzzles were a little aggravating, but I powered through it. And the end was nothing if not a complete and total mindscrew. 5/5, awesome job!

There should be a better ending if you beat the game without dying once. Then again, there may well be, I certainly haven't accomplished it.

yeah after shooting the dog twice in the back "provided i stayed by the wall so he would rebound" i jumped over him right before he jumped so he would jump away from me. Then let him jump toward me twice. after that i jumped over him again and was able to turn around quick enough to shoot him in the back again. Main boss. Thats just luck. shoot as falling. land on top platform. jump before it goes away and shoot. Now he's hit twice and will throw random stuff. just try not to get hit.
